Paleo Fx kicked off March 14 in Austin with an inspirational intro from Dr. Jack Kruse, who detailed his path to becoming a source for optimized life for patients and physicians alike. Thus began a 3 day immersion into the practical applications of the "paleo" lifestyle, from detailed lipid chemistry -- Chris Kresser is a very smart guy--to nutrition for the family--rollergirl skates into the cave--to fostering change--shrinking your head, paleo style.
So what's the deal? as perhaps best asked here, back in the day. (you need to see this, for stress management).
To paraphrase the evolutionary psychiatrist, Eat real food. Get 8-9 hours of quality sleep nightly. Exercise regularly. Manage your stress (perhaps through changing your priorities, meditation, life coaching, simplifying, or getting professional help with all of that). That dang deal right there is 80% of "this paleo gig," as Robb Wolf, paleo guru would say. If you're interested, best starters are Robb Wolf, Dallas and Melissa Hartwig, and Mark Sisson. This is "common sense medicine," and it's my hope you'll hear more about that in the years to come. Salud!
Seriously, dr catfish i have been reading links since i posted the first comment and isnt this just another health fad? Doesnt every fad find some doctors to endorse/ explain how this is going to solve all health problems? The diet industry is so predatory, I rarely trust any information that has to be purchased (of course what does that say about me?!) and there seems to be lots of free info about what not to do, but what to do is a link to amazon to purchase the next level. I am now depressed from seeking and not finding and want to crawl back into my cave and pull the covers over my head.
